No. Anything with mass exerts a gravitational pull. The strength of that pull is directly proportional to an object's mass and most objects do not have enough mass of their gravity to be noticeable. It starts to become noticeable with objects on the level of large asteroids and comets and small moons. Stars, which are far more massive than planets, have far stronger gravity. Black holes have the strongest gravity in the universe.

Do you only have gravity on earth?
No. All planets, moons, and stars have gravity. Techincally, anything with mass has gravity, but it is only noticeable with very large objects.
Why the Earth doesn't fall in the Sun?
Gravity is caused by mass, so objects with more mass, such as planets and stars, exert a lot of gravity. The earth and everything on it are constantly falling towards the sun because of the sun's immense gravity. ... Because of this sideways momentum, the earth is continually falling towards the sun and missing it.
How do planets only orbit around the sun and not go everywhere in space?
The Sun's gravity pulls on the planets.
What is gravity and how does it affect planets and the oceans?
gravity is something that can affect the planets.
How does gravity help to form planets?
the planets were formed by gravity because starts had gravity around them witch caused them to become bigger and be planets i think.. idk
Does the sun exerts gravity on other planets but does not exert gravity on earth?
Gravity is not picky. The sun's gravity holds everything in the solar system in place, by definition. That includes earth.
Does only the Earth exert gravity?
All matter, including every star, planet, galaxy, or whatever, anywhere in the universe, exerts the same force of gravity, as described by Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation.
Why can the sun exert its gravitation on all the planets?
Because it is very massive and therefore its gravity is the strongest of all objects in the solar system, reaching right out to very far out dwarf planets like Eris and Sedna.

Why is there only gravity on earth and not any other planet?
All planets have gravity, not just Earth.

Where do the planets get gravity?
Planets have gravity because they have mass.
What forces involved in keeping the planets in their obits?
Gravity is the only one necessary. Which is lucky, because gravity is the only one there is.

Is there gravity in space and why?
Yes. Gravity is a force of attraction that exists between all objects with mass. It increases with the mass of the object in question and decreases with distance from it. Planets, stars, moons, and galaxies all exert a gravitational pull.
How do planets only orbit around the sun and not go everywhere in space?
The Sun's gravity pulls on the planets.
Why is there gravity on some planets but not on others?
All planets have gravity, but some planets have more gravity that others. The amout of gravity is based on the size of the planet. Jupiter, for example, has much more gravity than Earth because it is bigger. Planents aren't the only objects that have gravity. Even your pencil has gravity, but it is such an extremly small amout that it really doens't make a difference.
